2019 Map of Whaleyville

About this map

Cypress Swamp dominates the northern reaches of this Delmarva landscape, where the Little Annemessex River and Pocomoke River systems originate. The terrain is defined by low-lying wetlands and well-documented drainage features like the Old Line Ditch, illustrating the historical effort to manage the water table for agriculture and settlement. The map captures a high concentration of small rural burial grounds, including Pulletts Chapel Cem, Dale Cem, and Bethel Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research in these border communities.
